The Big Merino

What travelers say:

Check in the world's largest sheep-shaped cement statue. At noon, arrive in the southern NSW highland town of Gulburn, a city that is based on livestock farming. In 1985, in honor of the 200-year history of the city's fine wool industry, a huge fine wool sheep sculpture was built on the side of the road, which is the Great Merino sheep. It is the world's largest sheep-shaped cement sculpture and the most famous punching place in Gulburn. The statue is empty, and inside is a multi-storey exhibition area, introducing the local vibrant wool industry.
